Since there are a fair number of us attending the IRG that have or have recently acquired gas pressure lanterns/stoves....what about maybe putting a display of some of it together?
Several of us have items that are nearly 90 years old and between all of us, I'm sure that we could come up with a time line of equipment that would be of interest to many. Just set up a couple of tables with them on display. Whether or not someone wants to fire it up is up to them, but at least maybe put a card that explains what year, manufacturer, and model it is. For some of us...they are daily users.
Might be a fun thing to do....I know that at a previous gathering last year...many of us spend hours BS'ing about them and staring at stark white light or the blue flame of a stove.

Kinda reminds me of sitting up at Wolf Creek...late at night a group of old "gas heads" staring at a bunch of lanterns running and BS'ing about them...Jeez...we need to get a life huh?

This is exactly the life I want. I was out in the garage tonite rebuilding my speedmaster 500.
Hanging out in the woods staring at lanterns and eating Kevins cookies. it dosn't get any better

I'm thinkin' Doug will take the Chef Pants in a new direction... Loud Aprons!!!
Yaa... I could dig it.
Hey... A Lantern Fest sounds cool!!!
150 old Colemans going at once... The Spotted Owls won't like it though...
Line 'em up from the gate to the cookshack along the road after dark...
Would make for some awesome nightime pics of the old growth lit up from underneath.
